What's New in RollCall Parent

4.0.2

August 13, 2026

RollCall 4.0 is our biggest update yet. Almost every screen has been rebuilt, and the app is now designed around the things parents do most: follow the bus, manage bookings and stay across changes. A smarter live map • The live map is now the heart of the app, with a journey sheet that follows the run in real time • See every scan on the journey timeline, with the real time and address where your child tapped on and off • School campuses and your child's stops are much clearer, and each child keeps their own colour everywhere in the app • Alerts now appear live on the map as chips. Tap one and the app explains exactly what it means • A new real-time engine makes live tracking quicker and more reliable Bookings, rebuilt • Set up regular term travel in one sitting, then forget about it • A clearer week view and calendar, with school holidays shown so you are never left guessing • Report an absence or a one-off change in seconds • A new stop finder helps you pick the right stop • When the school changes a route, you see it straight away and can acknowledge it in the app Simpler to get around • The app is now five tabs: Map, Bookings, Transactions, Messages and Account • Messages and Account have been fully redesigned • A short walkthrough greets you the first time you open the new app Easier sign-in • Enter your email and the app works out the rest: your school, and whether you sign in with a password or your school's single sign-on Plus many smaller fixes and performance improvements across the app. If anything looks unfamiliar, the new parent guides at rollcall.com.au/parents/app-guide walk through every screen.

User reviews

Horrible

New updated is horrible. Can’t zoom the map and the fixed zoom doesn’t give me a context of where the bus is.
What should be a simple app has turned into a Frankenstein. I’ll drive the kids to school from now on.
Apps ratings are inflated as well I see more 1 star than anything else

Response from developer

Hi Lsellarulo, Thanks for the honest feedback, and sorry the map has been frustrating. You're right about the zoom: it's a bug in version 4, our team has reproduced it, and a fix is in testing now with an update due in the coming days. Seeing exactly where the bus is is the whole point of the app, so we want this sorted as much as you do. In the meantime, email support@rollcall.com.au and our team will help directly and let you know the moment the fix is live. On ratings: every review here is genuine parent feedback and we read all of it, including yours. Thanks for bearing with us.

App update

The app update is amazing

Big Update

Quantum leap in functionality in the new version of the application. Let’s hope it’s somewhat free of bugs.

Response from developer

Thanks for the kind words. And on the bugs, fair call: a few small ones have surfaced since launch and we're patching them quickly, with an update due in the coming days. If you spot anything, support@rollcall.com.au comes straight to the team.

App crash

App sometimes crashed for no reason. Has to reset password to login after crash. It is inconvenient.

Why

You just can’t change your password it says it’s not the correct one every time it’s so dumb
